Opthea Limited has published its 2024-2025 Annual Report, highlighting significant developments over the past year. The report marks a turning point for the company, with a focus on leveraging scientific understanding of VEGF-C and D biology to develop innovative medicines. Despite promising Phase 2 data, the company's two Phase 3 clinical trials, COAST and ShORe, evaluating sozinibercept (OPT-302) for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration, did not meet their primary and secondary endpoints. This outcome has led Opthea to enter cash preservation mode, resulting in a reduction of its team and several Board members stepping down. The company's management reaffirms its commitment to supporting and growing innovations originating in Australia, while acknowledging the heightened risks in the biotech sector.
